I was looking at Mr Mikes website <a href="http://www.mrmikes.com">www.mrmikes.com</a> and I am thinking about ordering the whole leather seat cover set for camaro lowback seats, which I can get from the junk yard cheap. Anyways, has anyone ever seen the covers installed? Do they look factory? There is a picture of black leather seats in a camaro on the site, but it looks wrinkled, and I would like it to look tighter than that if possible. But If wrinkled is the only option, I really dont care, anything looks better than my current seats... Any info much appreciated

P.S: Heres the pic of the seats from the website

Ward, this might be better in the aftermarket vender review page, just a thought.

The seats in the photo are the "Gathered" style. If you dont want the wrinkles order the "Standard" style. They are great quality covers.

 

thanks man. Looks like i will start looking for camaro highback seats..

Not to be rude, but if you're going to spend $600 on leather seat covers (well, $450 for the fronts I didnt look at the rear prices) it would be a lot cheaper if you just bought leather seats. I got front and back leather seats for $200, but if your going to spend that much on seat covers you could easily find some on ebay for less than $450 I'd imagine.

 

if you want to spend $600 on leather seats, you can pick up some gorgeous leather 4th gen seats.

 

Or, you can spend that money on Mr. Mike's seat covers and maintain a stock-style appearance as well as have leather that's a whole lot higher quality than the garbage GM turns out.

I've got 4th gen seats in my car, and I like them, but I can certainly see why people like Mr. Mikes stuff. GM leather is garbage.

Around here its impossible to find fourth gen parts. The only way to get them is either from the dealer or from someone parting out a fourth gen. There are almost no fourth gens in the junk yard, the oness that are are base models and they are absoluteley stripepd to the frame. I have no prefernece, I would take fourth gen leather seats or Mr Mikes seat covers, because around here, fourth gen seats will cost the same amount.

I have the #13 tan leather mr. mike's seats in my car. Love Them. He sends a video on how to do the seats, hog rings, pliers, some foam, everything. He was very helpful and he did the door panels and the back panels on the convertible area. Excellent job. I give his work a 9 on a scale of ten. Good luck to you.
